It was just a joke, but was said by Xavier. With a straight face, Burke drank the beer and said, "I will stay here tonight."
As far as Xavier knew about Burke, Burke had tacitly admitted it.
Xavier was as excited as he had found the new continent of North America. He jumped off the sofa in an instant and shouted excitedly, "Damn it! I'm right? My sister-in-law is really admirable. Hahaha... "
Burke gave Xavier a cold look and made him shut up immediately. But the lips betrayed him. Finally he could not hold it and laughed loudly, with hands on his stomach.
"Have you laughed enough?" As a warning, Burke said coldly to Xavier, who was lying on the ground with his smile on his face.
Xavier stood up from the carpet, breathing heavily, and sat on the sofa. He said to Burke, "brother, you'd better go back. My sister-in-law might just be in some mood with you, you just need to say some sweet words to her." Xavier had no idea of the conflict between Burke and Rose. He just took it as a quarrel between ordinary couples.
Casting a glance at Xavier, Xavier said, "you sleep in the living room and I sleep in the bedroom." Then he was about to walk towards Xavier's room.
Xavier knew that Burke was here tonight. He shouted at the back of Burke, "As if you are the owner of the house, and it's really your style. Well, I have shown mercy to you today. Let's just take you in for one night. " After finishing speaking, he walked to the bedroom with Burke. He opened the wardrobe and got a quilt. Then he slept on the sofa in the living room.
When he was about to fall asleep, the mobile phone on the table suddenly vibrated. Xavier fumbled around on the table and grabbed the phone. He narrowed his eyes and saw that it was a high school classmate, Albert. 'I couldn't have a good sleep tonight, I didn't know why there were so many people looking for me.'
"Hello?" Xavier answered the phone in low voice.
"Hello, Xavier, I have found the person you asked me to investigate last time." When Albert worked in the Public Security Bureau, Xavier often asked him to investigate some tough things. They were high school classmates. One day, Albert accidentally broke the projector in the classroom. When Xavier knew that his family was in poor condition, he took the initiative to take full responsibility. He used half a year's pocket money to pay for the repair of the projector. Albert had always been grateful for the help of Xavier, and he was often enthusiastic and loyal, so Xavier's request to him was almost consenting to whatever he asked for, and his efficiency was very high.
"What? So soon? !" Xavier woke up half of a sudden, and immediately sat up from the sofa.
"Yes. I have sent relevant videos and materials to your mailbox. You can check them by yourself. If you have any questions, you can ask me." Albert replied patiently.
"OK, thank you. I'll treat you to dinner next time!" Xavier original stopped his call in a hurry, stood up from the sofa, and opened the laptop on the table to log in. Sure enough, the email sent by Albert had already been in the mailbox.
Xavier opened the email and downloaded all the videos and data into the computer hard disk, staring at the progress bar.
With a "Ding Dong", the file was finally downloaded. Xavier held his breath and opened the video. He found a familiar face outside the abandoned warehouse. It was Amanda!
